Memorial Mile was a stretch of highway near Ellaville, Georgia that commemorated the county's soldiers who had served in the Great War. It consisted of a series of marble stelae by the side of the road with brass plaques naming those who had served. Spartacus and his guerrillas despised the Mile since it ignored all the blacks the Confederacy had killed, and failed to include the names of black men who had volunteered to fight for the C.S.[1]
